When we consider the two elements gold and lead, we find that gold has a (ball park) thermal conductivity of about ten times that of lead. If you guessed that gold is about ten times as good a conductor of electricity as lead (based on the information presented regarding thermal conductivity), you'd be on target. In general, thermal and electrical conductivity both "track" from metal to metal. Good electrical conductors are generally good thermal conductors.
What else can I help you with?
What is best heat conducting metal?
Gold is the best heat conductor in the world.
Which metals are good conductor of heat?
Silver, copper, gold are the best conductors of heat. In this order.
Is gold bad conductor of heat?
No, it's a good conductor.
Is gold metal a good conductor of heat?
yes, because it is a fabulous conductor of heat
Is gold a good conductor for electrons?
Yes indeed it is one of the best conductors of heat and electricity
What element is good conductor of heat?
Gold.
Is the Mercury is the best conductor of heat?
It's not, there are materials that are better, like diamond.
Which of the these are the best conductor of heat wood plastic cloth iron?
Iron is the best conductor of heat among the materials listed. Wood and cloth are poor conductors of heat, while plastic falls somewhere in between.
Is water a best conductor of heat?
Not exactly. That is why it warms up with heat. A good conductor of heat like copper or iron is best conductor in comparision to water.
Is gold a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Gold is a good conductor of electricity but a poor conductor of heat. This is due to its high electrical conductivity resulting from its high electron mobility. However, gold's ability to conduct heat is lower compared to other metals like copper or aluminum due to its high density and low specific heat capacity.
What heats faster water or gold?
gold because it is a better conductor of heat
What are the best conductors of heat or electricity?
The best conductor of electricity is Silver, while the best conductor heat is helium (in its Helium II state), but some people consider diamond as the best heat conductor.
